If you're going to use a
word processor
to prepare a
writeup
, please open and/or save it as a plain-text file (or as HTML, perhaps). Don't post things that have
Windows
-only characters in them, as Linux
Netscape
(et al) will display apostrophes and other such things as question marks (or other
odd characters
), and not as what you intended. If you're noding in English, allow us
all
to enjoy it, by using standard
ISO 8859-1
characters.
Don't use
HTML
in
node
titles, neither tags, which get stripped anyway, nor entities (such as "), which may do the things described in the first item. The solution here is to copy and paste the needed characters into the title - if you have Character Map installed in Windows, it's a piece of cake, or you can copy from
everyone
's list of entities in
E2 HTML Tags
, or, as I do, keep an "odd characters" webpage on your hard drive, with a quick link to it on your browser.
(
bonez
says)- Also, keep in mind that it's fixable. After you click "
submit
" take a close look how your writeup is displayed. (You should
always
do this anyway, checking closely for
misspellings
as well as character displays) If you have some odd question marks or
whatnot
simply edit them out in the
Everything
text box and re-type them...they should display properly after that.
Use your
E2 Scratch Pad
to practice - make it
The Perfect Node
everytime.
